We've been home-owners since the 70s, had happy dogs since childhood. Frank is a professional writer across platforms and genres, and a museum curator. Julie is a teacher/counsellor with young adults in a flexible learning centre. She is interested in community development, dance for mature bodies, permaculture and organic gardening. We love cooking, conversation, and the outdoors - walking, kayaking. We have farm-sat on a small farm with a vegetable garden, alpacas, poultry, dog and cat, and now count the owners as friends.We are non-smokers.

Why we want to house sit

House sitting is a more personal experience than standard tourism and puts us in closer contact with community. And lets us meet new pets. It reduces commercial pressures and costs, and can lead to new friendships.

Our experience

Thanks to our own home ownership and small farm-sitting, we are experienced in - home care, security and general maintenance, in fair weather and foul. - caring for pets (dogs, cats and chickens)- caring for and enjoying gardens- making local connections.
